		It's one of the biggest leaks in my game, and although I know it's a problem, I'm having limited success in dealing with it. Way too often, I'm just too curious to fold. Example: in a game earlier, I raised PF with AK. The flop came AJ9 and I led out for 60% of the pot. My opponent raised. My immediate instinct is that he has AJ, but... guess what, I go OTT all-in anyway (after all, I've already invested 40% of my chips ). He actually has A9 (and is very upset when I river a K). Needless to say, in most of these situations, I lose and get knocked out. I read a transcript of an interview with Gus Hansen recently, where he admits to having the same problem on occasion (so now I don't feel quite so bad). My question is, how do you achieve the ideal balance between curiosity and discipline? If you have enough info about your opponents and your own table image then you can factor this into your decisions, but what if you don't?

		My curiosity costs me lots God damn nosey b4stard, just cant help myself. It is, however, balanced out by my unique donking capabilities.
